Recruiting Football Talk VIII

I’ve never been one to say “I have a source” but for once I do. Out of respect for that person I will not divulge anything to say who he is and his relationship to the program. That being said, I asked him Sunday to give me any insight so I can calm my nerves and he said that Nico is a go and could have played Saturday, but with the score and the opponent, they wanted to rest him for the second half just to get him to 100%. I haven’t heard anything to say otherwise from him, and until I do I won’t believe anything else written about it. So I’d take things like this with a gigantic grain of salt and call it the media needing to create a story.
I will corroborate your story. I was told that they never even diagnosed him with a concussion during or after the game, but pulled him for “showing signs”. Nothing ever confirmed

**edit: not to say that symptoms don’t change afterwards. Concussions can be weird
 
I actually feel better about Pete’s report because he said he dressed and practiced today.

Think about it…..that comes out minutes after Chris “the bear” says Nico is out? Sounds like UT gave Pete the information
Yeah I think they gave Pete the info, but whether or not that info is accurate is a question mark. We'd obviously have motive to say Nico is fine.

Though I do think it would be funny to say he's not playing then have him ready to go Saturday.

I’m not sure when final injury report is required from the SEC. I’m going to guess he’ll be “questionable” until game time either way.
 
If Nico doesn’t play and we lose to UGA, but he then returns and we smoke UTEP and Vandy, doesn’t the committee have to consider that? Ole Miss lost to UK with Dart. Bama lost to Vandy with Milroe. They had their weapons and still couldn’t get it done. If we’re missing our QB, doesn’t that make it a more acceptable loss than those?

You don’t know how this narrative stuff works- haha.

Instead, let’s beat Georgia with Gaston or Nico.
